Police intend to contact Ioanna Fotiou, also known as "Annie Alexui," to obtain information regarding the claims she has made public on social media about political figures, police officers and individuals involved in the underworld. These claims relate to collusion and corruption. The Legal Service will undertake the investigation, which will decide whether to appoint an independent investigator or one it trusts. Minister of Justice Konstantinos Phytiris emphasized that claims made on social media cannot be considered evidence for the prosecution of cases, as testimonies and signed affidavits are required. The investigation will be conducted within a legal framework, while the Minister stated that he understands the human drama of the case, but institutional functioning is paramount.
